✨️ For March I am holding another poll for our #whimsicalreads book club pick! With the help from @BooksNBowls I have compiled a few choices that we can all vote on! Please comment down below your pick and in a few days I'll be tallying up the votes and letting everyone know what we will be reading! I always try to plan ahead for you all to get your holds in or if you like to shop around for a good deal like myself! ✨️

1. My family, my mental health, & beauty standards the world feels we need to follow! I manage it by going to therapy, practicing self care & reminding myself of my self worth.
2. I know others might disagree but I think the feeling of being in love with another and receiving that same amount of love back and being proud of a lifelong commitment and relationship with that person is something everyone should experience.

Thanks for this awesome giveaway and congrats on reaching 20k!

My Favorite Book store to shop at is Bookmans exchange in Phoenix, AZ. It has the best YA section ever for a used bookstore near me. I've found so many gems at this location and it's always a fun time climbing the ladder to reach the highest shelves, it makes me feel like Belle!!! 🤩

So cute.

Thanks for doing another giveaway! 💖

I loved this story of Levana and all that she had to endure. It was pretty hard to read at times how she forced love but its her story to tell.

Continuing on with this series while I take a trip to meet my baby nephew! I wanted something familiar and this series has become a comfort read! This is book 3.5 in the Lunar Chronicles series and I always find myself wanting to read the characters back stories, especially since I always root for the villains. 🖤

I was drawn to this book by the beautiful cover. In the beginning I felt a lot was happening but I will say that the world didn't draw me in as much as I'd hoped. Their wasn't enough description and towards the middle I felt like it dragged on the wrong details while more important details were left out! Towards the end the whole political aspect of it had me a bit lost and withdrawn at times. Keep reading in comments....

As a child I remember enjoying reading but not caring to, if that makes sense haha! I loved the Frablnklin books in Elementary and then when Middle school came around the Spiderwick chronicles caught my eye. As I got older I remember being drawn to the fun pretty covers and that's when I picked up the Princess Diaries from the school library. I remember thinking I was so cool carrying around that pink cover haha. 👑

I haven't read in the past 5 days due to mom life but I'm so grateful to have some time off today to finally read some more of #whimsicalreads book club pick.

These are the books I am most looking forward to for 2023!

❄️❄️ For me personally it was hoodies and nike high tops, for trends it was peplum tops, statement necklaces, and wedges!

Thank you so much for the book @MatchlessMarie I am so grateful and love this edition!

All I can say is if you haven't read this yet, you definitely should! It is Amazing.

Taking time out after my therapy sessions to enlighten myself little by little! I really look forward to reading this every week. It's taking me a while to finish it, and I feel like that's a good thing. ☁️☁️☁️☁️

My son and I have volunteered with the city to take care of one of the little free libraries in the park near our house! We are really excited to do this together and 1st on our agenda will be to craft some free bookmarks to leave for everyone!

So my husband asked me if I wanted to read a book together and I could not believe my ears 🥹 I guess me talking about books 24/7 has sparked something in him! I tried to get him to annotate and have discussions and he said don't push it lmao. Baby steps baby steps haha! We are reading the only non fiction book I have on my shelf and he is very interested since he loves history. It's tagged and we will be starting it in a few weeks.

Since I'm on a book budget this year I'm watching everyone else book shop! 🫣😫 I will not break! It's only Jan. 2 haha but I'm adding a bunch to my tbr for when I do go book shopping. For the ones also on a book buying budget/ban Stay strong!!!!!

This is my first finished read of the new year! I haven't picked up a book from the Lunar Chronicles in quite a while. This being the 3rd book in the series I was surprisingly able to remember all the characters thanks to Marissa Meyer's simple writing style and her playing back moments throughout the book, which I really appreciated. This one is full of action and some romances are starting to unravel as well.

Starting a new reading journal for 2023! I love the sheer sparkle this one has and it's dotted which will be so helpful! Watching Harry Potter movies and gonna work on it all evening. 🤩

Getting started on my January buddy read early! Gonna do a slow read of this one since I love to research all the characters and details Madeline Miller writes in her books. Can't wait to share our thoughts on this @BooksNBowls

✨️

This book. This book right here was absolutely riveting. If you want to read something tragic and dark this would be a great pick. It is full of romance and sadness but make sure to check for trigger warnings because holy hell there are a ton! I really loved this story.

I couldn't help myself, I had to decorate my kindle! 🥰

@BarbaraJean Thank you so much for these wonderful gifts! Also, I received Olivia Twist in the mail last night. That was so sweet to gift me that as well! I hope your holidays are filled with happiness and love and your new year as well.
@MaleficentBookDragon thank you so much for hosting #jolabokaflodswap

Watching one of my favorite Holidays movie tonight!

#yearend100k @MatchlessMarie Thank you for hosting a giveaway and congratulations 🥰🥳
The atlas paradox by Olivia Blake, blood marked by Tracy Deonn, The book eaters by Sunyi Dean are my top 3!!!! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year ❄️🎄
